KRAZY KUNST – an exhibition of collaborative woodcut prints
 by Michael Bell and Menno Fahl opened last Thursday at the Megalo Print Studio + Gallery.

Exibition was opened by Roger ButlerAM, Senior Curator of Australian Prints and Drawings
National Gallery of Australia.

From 2012 to 2013, artists Michael Bell  (Australia) and Menno Fahl (Germany) posted numerous 
parcels of wood blocks to one another from their respective hometowns of Newcastle (Australia) 
and Berlin (Germany).
Each artist hand-carved an image in response to the other. These woodblocks traveled between
 the two countries many times before a satisfactory result was decided upon. Some woodblocks
journeyed over 65,000km before being finally printed!
Krazy Kunst ( Kunst meaning art in German), features 40 multi-coloured prints rich in humour
 and German Expressionist drama. This is the first time this work has been shown in Canberra,
having previously toured Berlin, Lubeck, Maitland and Sydney.
